Edith Cowan University Contemporary Fashion Graduation Exhibition

The graduating contemporary fashion students from ECU put on a thought-out and well executed exhibition and runway show, entitled Bare, on Saturday night.

Style Voyeur was there to capture what was one of the most chilled out backstage areas I have ever seen. 3 years lead-up and preparation for this event made the whole evening run smoothly and (seemingly) effortlessly. The relaxed behind-the-scenes vibe (which carried through to the catwalk) lent itself to the mood of the surrounds and translated the semi-bohemian 60's atmosphere exceptionally well.

IMG_0kjgtkh;askg405.jpgI thought I would take this opportunity to say I despise the term 'cool kids.' It implies a sense of negativity towards expression and individuality.
Sure superficiality is the lowest form of being but the people who bandy this term about should first consider that sometimes style is substance. It's one of the few ways you can say something without words and isn't being cool all about not giving a shit what anyone else is doing? Yeah we're into fashion, what the F is it to you? The way I see it is you can hardly stand up on your high horse wearing olive green crocs and a ratty old Telstra sports cap now can you?

IMG_0554.JPGDesigner Esther Lane was my favourite of the evening. Her designs most closely match my aesthetic. Her print work was inspired by the explorer/author Edward Packard who I discovered (upon researching) was responsible for the Choose Your Own Adventure children's series. The scar on the model's leg is perfect.

The neckpiece is so delicate and beautiful.

I enjoyed that! I've had a lovely time looking around your site, you've done a great job, well done.

My 5 year old kid has got a fancy dress competition in his playschool. I am confused whether I should go for Halloween theme or choose superheroes like Spiderman. He is more excited about the idea of playing Spiderman. And how do I sew a dress that resembles the superhero's red and blue attire? Any suggestions? Well I am a novice at sewing but creativity is what I am best at!

Hello, I want to create something like your weblog. You express your thoughts quite nicely.

Superb piece of writing, shall be useful to find out how this turns out. Definitely will take a note of your web-site to stay updated. See ya. Albert

I think cufflinks are another fad in mens fashion. There's really no other accessory a man can wear which can bring such a lot to his appearance without taking away from his class and splendour. Jewellery, outgoing clothing styles, and other flashy trends are very good, but not one of them have the class that cufflinks provide. Most men do not realize how much it can reinforce their appearance.

Great to hear the articleof how things actually developed leadingup to the launch of the station. It seems that there was a lot of luck involved.
